Memphis May Fire
My Generation
[Intro]
We are the youth, we are the future
We are the youth, we are the future
I only sleep to dream about the day we don’t fall in line
And everyone hears what we have to say with no question why
As long as there is breath inside our lungs we should have a voice
But we’ve been pushed aside because we’re young
And left without a choice
[Chorus]
Have they forgotten that we are the future?
My Generation is dying to be heard
Dying to be heard and be understood
But no one is listening
So me and my friends will be the voice for the ones you ignore
And we’ll be louder than ever before. Can you hear me!?
We’ll FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT for the ones without a voice!
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT until they pay attention!
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT for the ones without a voice!
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT we’re gonna make them listen!
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! FIGHT
FIGHT FIGHT! FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!
We’re gonna make them listen! FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!
We’ll fight till they hear us out! We’ll fight till they hear us out!
[Chorus]
Have they forgotten that we are the future?
My Generation is dying to be heard
Dying to be heard and be understood
But no one is listening
So me and my friends will be the voice for the ones you ignore
And we’ll be louder than ever before. Can you hear me!?
We are the youth, we are the future!
Misunderstood
We are the youth, we are the future!
We’re dying to be heard! We are the youth, we are the future! Somebody pay attention!
We are the youth, we are the future!
Misunderstood
We are the youth, we are the future! We’re dying to be heard!
What do you expect when you leave us empty handed and without respect?
What do you expect when you take away our voice and we have nothing left?
[Chorus]
Have they forgotten that we are the future?
My Generation is dying to be heard
Dying to be heard and be understood
But no one is listening
So me and my friends will be the voice for the ones you ignore
And we’ll be louder than ever before. Can you hear me!?
We are the youth, we are the future!
We are the youth, can you hear me!?
